Description Alex V. Koval 2003-11-20 09:20:58 UTC
Hi

Ok, situation starts:
  emerge opera-7.22

there are piece of code which checks is openmotfi installed or not, and if not, then skip the 
installation of operamotifwrapper

# install correct motifwrapper                                                                                                                       
if has_version '=x11-libs/openmotif-2.2*'; then                                                                                                               rm ${D}/opt/opera/lib/opera/plugins/operamotifwrapper                                                                                 cp ${S}/plugins/operamotifwrapper-3 ${D}/opt/opera/lib/opera/plugins                                            fi      

Problem
-------------

In this sequence:
 - user installs Opera
 - user installs Openmotif

result will be bad: everything installeed, but you will not receive any warnings. Just clean empty
screens with openmotif.

Solution
------------

At my opinion, installed with or without openmotifwrapper file - there are no big difference. But if installed without the file you run into problems later, which are difficult to determine. 

I have spent many hours trying to find out what is wrong until received the solution from one of opera fans.

At any case it is nonsense for me to delete the file which comes into standard installation of some software.
